"Josephine Baker on the Scheveningen beach in 1928. She visited the Netherlands where she stayed in the Kurhaus and performed in the Scala theater."

During the 1910s young girls wore big bows on their hair that fell onto the head, and so they became known as "flappers". The name would stick with this generation, as they grew up in the 1920s.

Love this shot of Josephine! Even on the beach, she's still on stage.
She was a joy. :)
So wonderful to stumble across your site while researching the 1920s for my projected series "Dear Topsy, Love Trixie", based on the series of three books of fictional letters (beginning with "The Trials of Topsy" published 1928) by A. P. Herbert.
Delighted to make your electronic acquaintance.
